The Balm Girls Lipstick – Foxxy Pout Review
Hello IMBB Beauties,
Continuing with my love for lipsticks, bringing you one more product from TheBalm company from the range of The Balm Girls. The particular shade is known as Foxxy Pout, read on to know more about the lovely gift I got from my super awesome mum. My love for neutrals is not unknown to my family members, so I told Ma to get neutrals with a twist and she just nailed it. Read on to know more about this lipstick.
Packaging:
Foxxy Pout comes in packaging similar to MAC, but with matte silver color body. There is a shining silver band across the waist where the cap shuts with a click. It’s very travel friendly as there is no chance of the cap opening up. At the bottom, there is a sticker indicating the shade name. The sticker is red in color but that is nowhere close to the color of the lipstick, so I am not sure if it is red in general for all lipsticks of this range or this is indicative. If the sticker color is indicative of the shade then that is nowhere close to the shade. The interesting part of the packaging is the outer paper carton. Like all “theBalm” products, this also comes in a vintage packaging. I am surely keeping this one ignoring the shortage of space for my makeup stuff.
Ingredients:
Finish:
It is a frosty lipstick with lots of shimmer, but thankfully, they are not gritty and do not feel uncomfortable on the lips. The finish is neither creamy nor drying. I never felt my lips dry up with this, but again it is not a super creamy lipstick.
Pigmentation:
One swipe will not be enough to cover pigmented lips. In fact it comes as pretty sheer on the lips. If you do not line your lips, you might feel it is depositing only the shimmer, but the truth is the shade is so close to the natural lip color that it will give a very natural shimmery look to the lips. If you like to wear an everyday shade with a bit of twist, this might be the perfect shade.
Staying Power:
Stays for 2-3 hours without food. Transfers to spoon, cups, mugs but it will not disappear from your lips. This will not leave any stain on the lips, but the shimmer tends to transfer slowly all over.
My Experience with The Balm Girls Lipstick – Foxxy Pout:
The neutral lover in me fell in love at the first sight of the lip color. This is a proper rose-gold shade, will definitely brighten up the everyday dull face and the shade is so unique that it can be worn any time of the day. Good for office wear and parties. The only con with this lipstick is that the shimmer transfers.
I have to be very careful about that and I sometimes seal the color and shimmer with a transparent lip gloss. Though that’s not a perfect idea to stop spreading the shimmer, but still it works. The bullet looks exactly like the fairer brother of MAC. The smell is also like MAC. I am guessing they either have same minds or manufacturers. Due to the shimmer transfer, I am wearing it only for a short span of time. Unlike most frosty lipsticks, this does not wash me out. On the contrary, it adds glam to the tired face.
Price:
RM. 55.00; equals to Rs. 1100 for 4 gm.
